If you rewrite this phrase to be an equation, with N representing the missing number, it would be:

20% x N = 1581.01 or 0.2N = 1581.01

This equation basically says 20% of what number equals 1581.01.

0.2N ÷ 0.2 = 1581.01 ÷ 0.2 -->
N = 1581.01/0.2
N = 7905.05

The equation is y=17(7)+600 and it equals 717
